Re: An ominous developement for Middle Way Mormons
I just want to say thank you to everyone on this site. Providing a place to vent and encouragement to keep trying brought hope and progress to my husband who had started down a very angry path in his feelings towards the church before he found this site. This is not something any TBM member could ha...

Re: Grace - Long Initial Post
Can I say Wow! ......Just wow. Thank you Ray, Katie and Tom for this discussion :clap: I've been pondering the whole grace vs works argument for awhile now.

Your phrasing gets you in trouble. You often argue on the same side as them, your wording is just different than theirs. ;) "T...

Re: the face of Jesus
I just watched the Angles and Demons movie for the first time Sunday after church. Disappointing.

Re: Sometimes I hate when I'm right
I've only skimmed the 14 fundamentals talk before this and to hear this HC member go point by point and give his opinion on things made me and DD physically ill by the end of the meeting. The spirit in the room afterwards felt very oppressive. DD thought the talk made us sound like a cult and was ve...

Re: Inspiration or desperation?
I would love to participate in one of these someday. I grew up in Utah but our stake never did the treks until after I graduated high school. My younger brother and sister went and still remember it as one of their best experiences in YW/YM. I think it would be a good way for teens to connect with t...

Re: I Know the Scriptures are True
Sorry I've been out of touch for awhile. I go through phases where I just can't make myself get on the computer for awhile. I do it with TV and phones as well :oops: Two of my least favourite words: 'know' and 'true' -- all in the the same short sentence. Ugh I agree! I loved last years theme that w...

Re: My release came
It was quite a shift in thinking for me when they released me from YW and called me to our very small and inconsistently attended primary. The whole shift to "black and white" thinking that is required in primary was hard because it was much easier for me to teach teens who are starting/have reached...

Re: Avoiding Twisted Thinking
Wow! I've used all of these types of thinking at one time or another in my life. Seeing them listed like that will help me self-examine when I get negative about things. Thanks for posting them. Jumping to conclusions (mind reading), emotional reasoning, and should statements, seem to be my biggest ...

Re: The afterlife
Flower, You have given me a lot to think about and strangely enough I had a spiritual experience reading your post. I'm not sure what it means but I think I gained some insight into my own life and I thank you for sharing your thoughts so that I might gain understanding. Canada ME TOO! :idea: -We m...
